Estes Park vendor help needed!

Hi all! We're planning a wedding at The Stanley Hotel in October 2012. I've been looking for a DJ and can't believe how much they cost!! Every DJ I've spoken to is right at $1000. Does anyone know of any up-and-comers in that will DJ a reception for less? Also, looking for any reviews, suggestions on lower cost bakers and photographers? I feel like we're bleeding money planning this wedding! Any and all suggestions welcome and thanks in advance!!

  • Hi, I am getting married in Estes in September of this year. A DJ we are talking to and he seems reasonably priced is a new song http://anewsong.com/ he is out of fort collins but travels to estes all the time. 

    Photographers I would talk to gathering light she is out of denver and october would be her off time so she will probably give you a discount and all her packages include two photographers and unlimited time, we also spoke to yellow paddle who were very reasonable they do have professional and student photographers, photography by van pelt was really nice to talk to, defiore photography does amazing work she was unfortantly out of town the weekend our wedding was. 

    We went with Scmidts bakery in loveland for our cake. Helen is amazing and the price seemed reasonable compared to everyone esle we had talked to even with the traveling fee. 

    I hope this helps and Good Luck
  • Hi there...

    If you want a reasonable DJ I would suggest http://www.tophatentertainmentdj.com/
    We originally were going to go with Larry but a dear friend of ours is doing our music.  Larry is great and I think without uplighting he is around $700.00.  He does outdoor ceremony music and reception. 

    Good luck and congrats!
  • Here's a few I like (and i'm sure you could get under 1k) ...
